The Topper Industrial Wisconsin-based manufacturing facility demonstrates its commitment to sustainable design and manufacturing. From its production facilities to its products to its people, few companies are as respected in the manufacturing industrial ergonomic space.

As a leading manufacturer of ergonomic tools for the industrial workspace, there are dozens of sustainable initiatives few companies take seriously. Never complacent, because lean manufacturing’s rule #1 is continuous process improvement, the pioneer to North American fork truck free initiatives holds more ergonomic patents than nearly any other company in the manufacturing space.

The relationship between ergonomics and design is a key element in a sustainability project. Ergonomics is a strategic factor for design culture innovation, providing designers with the necessary knowledge and skills regarding human characteristics and capabilities, as well as user needs and desires during use and interaction with products in work activities and everyday life.

Ergonomics is also a strategic innovative factor in design development and manufacturing processes. In fact, ergonomics provides a methodological approach in user-product interaction evaluation processes using participatory design and survey methods, user trials, direct observation, savings, and resource conservation.
